Hi everybody, my brother bought a property in Florida earlier this year and is now thinking of selling it. Does anyone know what Capital gains tax he will be liable for if he makes a profit. Does he have to pay CGT in England and in Florida or just in one country or what ever.
I own an apartment in Turkey and I read in this forum that if you own property over 5 years there is no CGt to pay in Turkey. What do you pay if you sell if before 5 years and do you have to pay it again in England.
All info greatly received.
thanks in advance
Jeannie
Jeannie İn Turkey its four years not five and the first 12000 YTL of profit is not taxed. its about 25to 30 % thereafter. Any tax you pay in Turkey is then off set in england due to reciprocal tax agreements İ.E. you dont pay twice.
